Desktop files are in general more expressive than menu files, and remaining missing features could be fairly easily added, I think. > It doesn't seem to me that your proposal of making it a release goal for > Wheezy is incompatible with Andreas' proposal. The main thing that has to happen to replace menu files with desktop files is to add an implementation of generation of menus from desktop files for those window managers and other menu clients that have Debian menu implementations but don't natively support desktop files. Otherwise, we have a regression in quality of menus for those applications. Last time we discussed this, fvwm2 was raised as a major example. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
